- Generation Joshua (often called "GenJ" by its members) is an American Christian youth organization founded in 2003 that aims to encourage youth participation in government, history, civics, and politics for conservative Christian values. Generation Joshua is a division of the Home School Legal Defense Association (HSLDA), which is a non-profit 501(c)3 organization, based in Purcellville, Virginia. Generation Joshua seeks to educate students on the history and founding of the United States through a conservative Christian perspective, while also providing hands-on opportunities for students to be involved in government and politics. To this end, the organization provides civics education classes, a book club program, and bi-weekly current events discussions. Generation Joshua also seeks to promote activism opportunities for members through local clubs, voter registration drives, and Student Action Teams, where student members campaign for political candidates. The organization also offers a college scholarship program, called the Ben Rush Awards Program, where students participate in civic involvement to earn money for college. Generation Joshua campaigns solely for conservative, mostly Republican candidates who support anti-abortion and otherwise socially conservative platforms. All partisan activities are operated and funded by the HSLDA PAC. Generation Joshua's name is taken from the Biblical figure Joshua, who led the nation of Israel after Moses. (en)
